Men Speak

By: Campfire Initiative
  • Summary

  • Men Speak focuses on the stories of Albany County, Wyoming men that challenge socialized beliefs surrounding masculinity. Men Speak events feature storytellers from diverse backgrounds sharing true stories about fighting the stigma of men’s mental health, challenging gender stereotypes, and simply learning how to be a good person. The Men Speak podcast tells these stories as well as taking a deeper dive into each of the subjects with prevention specialist Bob Vines and journalist Cooper McKim. It is our belief that storytelling can be used as a catalyst for social change, teaching empathy, and making a safer world for everyone. Men Speak is sponsored by the Albany County Campfire Initiative, a joint effort between the Wyoming Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault and the Albany County SAFE Project. This project was supported by Grant No. 2019-CY-AX-0016 awarded by the Office on Violence Against Women, U.S. Department of Justice. The opinions, findings, conclusions, and recommendations expressed in this publication/program/exhibition are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women.
